Check out our posthere . Spoiler : they do n’t look so red-hot .
Is it deserving it if you have an iPod Touch ?
Personally , I would say yes . It ’s a altogether different affair . You ’ll still employ your iPod Touch for stuff and nonsense when you ’re out and about — for listening to music , at least — but the iPad just opens up so many exciting new opportunities . Whether you ’re in it for the games , for reading ebooks , or just surfing the connection with your fingertips , it ’s improbably impressive . good of all , you’re able to be in it for all those things and a net ton more .

Yes ! According to the literature that comes with the 10W USB Power Adapter with iPhones and iPod Touches . Sidebar : the piddling courser is pretty adorable .
Is the touching feedback quicker and smoother than the iPhone 3GS , or does it stammer like the Microsoft Surface ?
The touching feedback is great . Though it ’s hard to say how it compare to the iPhone , it definitely does n’t stutter at all . In thing like , say , Maps , it ’s super responsive , and the wider screen allows for self-aggrandising multitouch gesture ( and thus deeper zoom ) .
Silly interrogation : does the iPad add up with a dust - innocent cloth ?
No , but it does come with the common snazzy Apple stickers .

It can run it in both landscape and portrayal mode .

How accurate is the positioning system , as in Google Maps ?
I was pleasantly surprised that the iPad accurately narrowed my position down to a two - street spoke in several dissimilar locations . It ’s not unadulterated — it claim several tries to get it to detect my location in some places — but it ’s decent enough .
I ve notice you were lecture about connecting a bluetooth keyboard on the iPad . Is the iPad compatible with the current Apple ( or any ) BT radio keyboard ? ( if yes , who needs the comming dock / keyboard combo )
